|---|---|
| Main Objective: The PREBOT II trial is a multicentre, randomised controlled phase II clinical trial with two parallel study arms. The primary objective of this pilot trial is to investigate the benefit of an endoscopic injection of botulinum toxin into the sphincter Oddi prior to planned partial liver resection to reduce postoperative bile leakage. The main focus is on testing the safety and feasibility of the procedure, but first data on its effectiveness will also be gained.;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives are to evaluate clinically relevant postinterventional and postoperative complications in intervention and control group: Severity of bile leakage according to the ISGLS, occurrence of post-interventional pancreatitis, post-hepatectomy liver failure according to the ISGLS, postoperative overall morbidity ( including post-hepatectomy hemorrhage according to the ISGLS, intra-abdominal fluid collection/abscess, perioperative sepsis, etc.) and severity of listed postoperative complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification, reinterventions/-operations, mortality, quality of life using the Short Form (SF)-12 Health Survey, intensive/intermediate care unit stay, total hospital stay, readmission to hospital ;Primary end point(s): Occurrence of postoperative bile leakage within 30 days after hepatic resection according to the definition of the International Study Group of Liver Surgery (ISGLS).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Visit 4: (3 days after operation) POD = post-operative day Visit 5: (day of hospital discharge) Visit 6: POD 30 Visit 7: 3 months after index operation | — |
